Discover the essence of the Itata Valley with Mi Nena Corinto, a unique white wine crafted by Agricola Grillos Cantores, a project founded by Paco Leyton of Clos des Fous. This expressive wine is produced from head-trained, bush vines that have been cultivated sustainably without irrigation, highlighting the rich heritage of the vineyard planted over 150 years ago. The wine undergoes a long fermentation process and is aged for 18 months on its lees, resulting in a complex and balanced profile with a distinct mineral character. With a bright straw color and an aromatic bouquet of citrus, green apple, and floral notes, this wine offers a refreshing palate experience with crisp acidity and a long, clean finish.
